It means having common definitions. If I am a government line ministry worker in the government of Ghana, I'm not really interested in knowing uniquely what Canada did and uniquely what another donor government did. There are probably 50 donor governments that are operating in my country contributing to my national budget. I would want to know across the whole scope what investments are most effective. Having a common standard definining what donor countries like Canada need to publish allows for comparability across the board so we can see what $200 million of investment in the education sector from Canada does in comparison to $200 million in education investments from another donor country.
Right now it's a little bit like comparing apples and oranges, because we're using different definitions and different standards, and we're including different pieces of information in how we report.
Does that answer your question?
